Historical information
Sketches of Stawell Water Supply Bovine Aqueduct October 5th 1881. The Grampian scheme planned by the the Borough Engineer John D'Alton.
D'Alton's suggestion was that the water be carried from the source in an open channel two miles, then in a flume of timber.
Later surveyed and planned a tunnel on a good line - to reduce the flume 72 miles and the main to Stawell to 15 miles.
